obsolete, anterior border concave-emarginate ; orbital groove in- 

 distinct ; antennae very slender, filiform, nearly equal to the body 

 in length, fulvous. Thorax transverse, sides rounded, converg- 

 ing in front ; surface minutely granulose, remotely punctured. 

 Elytra oblong, black, subnitidous, convex, not excavated below 

 the basilar space ; rather strongly and closely punctured, the 

 punctures arranged in numerous slightly irregular longitudinal 

 rows, the puncturing near the apex finer than in front ; on 

 each elytron, near the middle, is a slightly oblique transverse 

 rufo-fulvous patch. Claws piceous. 



II. Hinder thighs simple ; anterior pair either simple or armed 

 beneath with a small tooth. 



G. Colaspoides cvprea, n. sp. 



Elongata S > oblonga ? , parallela, cuprea, nitida, subtus piceo- 

 cuprea; antennis nigris, basi fulvo-piceis ; thorace snbcrebre 

 punctato ; elytris intra marginem lateralem longitudinaliter 

 excavatis, infra basin distincte transversim impiessis, subte- 

 nuiter et subseriatim punctatis, interspatiis planis. 



Long. 3 — t lin. 



Hab. Pulo-Penang. 



Head irregularly but not closely punctured ; epistome longer 

 t1ian broad, sides converging backwards, apical margin broadly 

 obsolete, anterior border concave-emarginate ; labium, palpi 

 and three or four basal joints of the antennae obscure fulvous, 

 the latter more or less stained above wiih cupreous ; antennae 

 filiform, three-fourths the length of the body. Thorax rather 

 more than twice as broad as long, sides nearly straight and 

 parallel behind the middle, thence rounded and converging to the 

 apex ; surface finely but distinctly punctured, the punctures shal- 

 low. Elytra parallel, convex, distinctly impressed below the 

 basilar space, and also within the humeral callus, which is mo- 

 derately prominent ; just within the lateral margin is a deep 

 but ill-defined longitudinal excavation ; surfiice finely but dis- 

 tinctly punctured, the punctures irregularly placed in double 

 rows, towards the apex these rows become single, the one next 

 the suture being very regular, the others confused ; interspaces 

 plane, impunctate. Thighs unarmed.
